No, that came later. I had one of the very original ones.
I'm pretty sure it was that Jensen platform, but I'm too lazy to go back and look.

I ended up hacking something up which was enough to show the build problems, and then some.
But your config shows _other_ errors with the IO functions, so I guess I'll need to look at that one too.
There's clearly a reason that Jensen was marked BROKEN in the Kconfig, the whole situation with the IO accessor functions on that platform is a disaster.
